Great price!!! Ultra Karl has lids and funnels for em.

Nice! Will spit out corn 54.5% more days than a regular ol' 55 gallon drum. Might save a few feeder check lease trips. Although those are a nice excuse to the wife of "needing" to go to the lease, with friends and beer of course.

Does it come with a line of credit to fill that thing with corn?

No sir or I would have bought them to, I may be hearing of maybe more comming, if they show up I'll post the cost and grab them, was told buy the seller the price will be going up. Building two feeders now and if I had a steady flow I would be building more to sell.

should i mount the leg brackets in the middle or the barrell to better compensate for the added weight? or just in the regular place?
